  • Very cool. I'm currently awaiting delivery of a Sonicware deconstruct MINIMAL. I'm hoping it's as fun to play with as this is.

  • It's a bit difficult to use, but it's really fun.

  • ... Why do renders need to be verifiable, what does that mean?

    Anyway, on a related note, I just vibed together something in the same vein (using Ox Alpha, because why not). https://aamen-veli.akx.fi/

  • Nice!!! A bit hard to understand if you haven't used anything related before, but interesting enough to make you wanted to try it when you haven't used anything related before ahaha

  • Very Cool!! FYI the opengraph image, when I share the link, is an invoice from what looks like your freelance work.

  • Love this. I want this to go up to 174 bpm for some DnB experiments.

  • Instant fan, looks great, sounds great, reproducible.

    Nice work and thank you for sharing!

  • If you're interested in this random pattern generation, here's a €150 hardware synthesizer, where all the configuration is hidden behind midi.

    https://cymaforma.com/rnd-synth

    It's a combination of an art project and a serious instrument. It streams four channels out its USB.

  • Is there something similar to this that includes melody composition that's not tied to a scale? My son has been composing music for a couple years in Chrome Music Labs and he's definitely outgrown it, but I can't find anything that lives online (and ideally can be downloaded in a single html, love the idea) and allows any-length melodies to be composed within the browser with drumkits, etc...

    Something like Caustic, but in HTML :-)

  • I know the renders are verifiable, but are the splines reticulated?

  • I love beautiful software and this is it

    Edit: I just downloaded the html file and it still works locally as a single page app, no external libs, no fonts, icons, nothing that could break the correct functioning of the app. This is how software should be built, portable, no installation required, drop anywhere and run

    Kudos on everything perfectly executed

  • Like i get what you are saying, but

    > no external libs, no fonts...

    It needs an entire browser.

  • Yep! And it works well on iOS too. Safari sucks and stutters with some of these single file html and I haven’t been able to figure out why, but my god this is awesome and also fun to play with!

  • Ditto on the lovelyness of single-file, zero-dep, standalones. In my day job I'm stripping out hundreds of megabytes from one of our main docker containers, but running into little projects like this that make me smile. Beautiful

  • Good point. GlassBox also appears as single page. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49421948

    I am working on an RSS reader that is also single page and location-agnostic. Issue for me right now is CORS unblocking as that does entail some complexity to workaround. Current length of the HTML is 2500 lines / 101KiB.

    Moreover, just like https://theresanaiforthat.com/ - a great thing to see would be something like thereisanHTMLforthat.com - because quality vibe-coding delivers!

    Also, a single HTML can easily be security audited, right? How much damage can it do?
